Issues Opening TiTS/CoC

If you’re using Chrome and having issues opening my games, consider switching to a standalone flash player. Alternatively, you may do the following, but be aware it may leave you vulnerable to flash exploits on other websites in the future.

You need to go to your address bar and type in ” chrome://plugins ” without the quotes. Tell chrome to always allow Adobe Flash Player to run.

Chrome seems to be slowly phasing back their internal flash plugin, resulting in the browser behaving as if it cannot open some flash files. I hope this helps!

Note: This leaves open to any flash-based browser exploits that may surface in the future.

Been wondering, is there any word about the wiki’s being updated on Smutosaur? It was a great site to look up details for mutations, equipment and even a few fixes such as this. Curious why it stopped.

It’s not just Chrome. Safari is having issues with the reading of the .swf files for ANY of the TiTS builds. I have not just the current one, but from several months ago, in the 6.whatever range, and NONE of the .swf files are able to be opened up in Safari. I miss the old .html files. >.>!

You want to poke the icon in your address bar (puzzle piece with an X on it) and then run all plugins this time, or add an exception to allow them on specific domains. That way next time a zero day flash exploit is discovered you’re not leaving the door wide open.

As flash becomes closer and closer to being a deprecated technology, this is going to start becoming more prevalent. Have there been thoughts about converting the code away from flash? I know this would be a huge undertaking that would likely include months of work without much additional content being made, so a rough decision to make either way you go. Just thought I’d ask to see if it’s been considered.

As mentioned earlier, it could be an idea to switch to an other code.
HTML 5 might be one of the best alternatives, though, as also mentioned earlier, it would take some time to convert everything, maybe even rewrite stuff.
Suggestion would be to look into it, see what the possibilities are.
Though I doubt TiTS will harm my PC/browser through the use of Flash, it will only cause ‘harm’ in my brain. XD

Solution: Everyone on Windows OS architecture could move from Chrome to Firefox, which doesn’t have any of the problems Chrome is having. (Unless all the people having the problem are Chrome users on Macs, and none of the Chrome users on Windows are affected… Then feel free to ignore me spouting this then useless information, since it’d be impossible for me to delete this after posting it.)

Firefox is doing the same thing, potentially. The issue is it’s not just a global “disable flash”, but some stupid fucking staged progression of disabling support for it, so we get instances where it might work for somebody right now, but it won’t tomorrow or the week after- and not because their browser has updated either.

Adobe is deprecating flash globally (finally), the major browsers all said a while back they were going to phase it out completely. For now the standalone players are really the only viable solution, but even those are going to become legacy.

For now though if you don’t want to use the standalones a refresh tends to work, at least on tabs with just the game swf and no wrapper. Basically the same as clicking the option for loading a flash in websites.
